Han Li ignored Jin Tong and said, "Fellow Daoist Ghost Shaman, the Ghost Swamp in front of us seems peaceful, but it shouldn't be a good place, right?"

"Hehe, how can there be a good place in the Netherworld? It's not bad to have such a scene.

The miasma in the Ghost Swamp is thick and lingers for a long time. It has formed a five-colored poisonous cloud in the sky after being steamed all year round.

However, with your Grand Heavenly Body, you should be fine as long as you don't fly high up in the sky, "Ghost Shaman answered with a chuckle.

"That's fine, but where is the Residence of Yama you mentioned?" Han Li asked.

"It's not far, we're almost there," Ghost Shaman said.

"You've said this no less than five or six times. Is the Residence of Yama in this swamp?" Weeping Soul glanced at Ghost Shaman and asked with a frown.

"I keep feeling that this place is very barren. It doesn't look like there are any buildings here. You're not lying to us, are you?" Jin Tong was also full of doubt.

"How would I dare to lie to you!

The Residence of Yama is actually on an isolated island in the middle of the swamp. It's just that it's surrounded by a strange law formation, and no one has ever been able to enter it … As for how strange it is, you'll understand when you see it, "Ghost Shaman said hurriedly.

"In that case, please lead the way, Fellow Daoist Ghost Shaman. We'll go take a look now," Han Li said.

"About 300,000 miles west of this peninsula, you'll see a forest. The trees there are more special … Let's go there first …" Ghost Shaman said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Li and the other two flew into the sky, but they were only a few hundred feet above the Great Swamp and flew at a low altitude.

A moment later, a black withered tree that was hundreds of feet tall appeared at the end of everyone's vision.

The trunk of the tree was very thick, but it was completely black and shriveled as if it had been burned into charcoal. There was no vitality at all, and the branches were scattered without leaves. They were like ferocious ghost claws that stretched in all directions.

Its vines hung down from the branches like weeping willows, with countless rotting corpses hanging on them. At first glance, they were of various shapes and sizes, causing one's scalp to go numb.

Behind the withered tree, within the miasma, one could still vaguely see that there were similar withered trees at regular intervals. They were so dense that they stretched to the end of one's field of vision.

Just as Han Li and the others were about to approach, Ghost Witch suddenly reminded them.

"Those trees are Hanging Corpse Ghost Vines. They are quite difficult to deal with, so don't get too close.

All we need to do is use this area as the coordinates, travel about 1.7 million miles to the north, and look for a swamp floating rock that looks like a ghost. From there, travel another 800,000 miles to the west, and we'll reach the island where the King Yanluo's Mansion is located. "

When Han Li and the other two heard this, they immediately stopped and flew towards the north.

…

Under Ghost Witch's lead, Han Li and the others traveled for about three days before they finally arrived at the isolated island in the Great Swamp.

They were still more than a thousand miles away from the island, and the surroundings seemed to be enveloped by a layer of barrier. All the miasma and poisonous fog were isolated outside, causing the isolated island to look like a pure land outside.

However, Han Li soon noticed something strange. The barrier contained a powerful power of the Law of Time.

The three flew over and hovered outside the barrier. When they looked at the isolated island inside, they saw that time inside the barrier seemed to have stopped.

The verdant trees on the island seemed to be frozen at that moment as soon as they swayed under the breeze. Even the birds that flew past the treetops maintained a posture of spreading their wings and hovered in the air.

"Could this be the King Yanluo's Mansion?" Weeping Soul looked around and said.

"Yes, it's here." Ghost Witch said.

"Eh? What is going on inside?" Jin Tong asked in surprise.

"This barrier is filled with the power of the laws of time. It has sealed the time inside. Everything is maintained in its sealed state. For a long time, no one has been able to enter it, let alone set foot on the island," Ghost Witch said.

Han Li took a quick look and said doubtfully,

"The sealing barrier here does contain rich power of the Laws of Time, but it isn't a powerful killing formation or an indestructible defensive formation. Why hasn't it been broken?"

"Well … Friend Han, you can try it yourself and find out," the Ghost Witch said hesitantly.

"Humph!

Uncle, just you wait. I'll go and try first. "Jin Tong curled his lips and said.

After saying that, her whole body flashed with golden light. Without waiting for Han Li to stop her, she had already rushed to the barrier.

"Hold on …"

Han Li only had time to shout those two words before he was astonished to see the golden boy, who had charged into the spirit formation with brute force, being enveloped by a golden light and instantly retreated out of the spirit formation.

"Humph!

Uncle, just you wait. I'll give it a try first. "Jin Tong curled his lips and charged forward, his entire body glowing with golden light.

However, in the next instant, he returned to his original spot and said, "Humph!

Uncle, just you wait. I'll go and try first. "

The golden light rushed toward the barrier. The expression on his face was exactly the same as before, as if he was completely unaware of his repetitive actions.

After returning to his original spot, Jin Tong was about to crash into the barrier when Han Li grabbed him with a golden hand.

"Uncle, what are you doing?

Let me try first, "Jin Tong said as he broke free from Han Li's grasp.

"You've tried several times already. It's useless," Han Li said.

"Uncle, are you seeing things?

I haven't even tried once … Weeping Soul, do you think Uncle is muddle-headed? "Jin Tong asked with a puzzled look.

"Master isn't talking nonsense. You've tried many times," Weeping Soul said.

"No way?

How come I didn't know that? "Jin Tong was confused.

Han Li fell silent. He finally understood why Ghost Shaman had said that this place was strange.

"This barrier has the effect of sealing time. Anyone who enters it will be affected by the law of time and forever remain in the state they were in before entering the barrier.

If no one tries to stop them, I'm afraid they'll remain in this state forever, "Han Li explained after a moment of thought.

"I don't think I understand," Jin Tong said as he scratched his head.

Weeping Soul was also confused.

"In other words, it's useless even if you try a million times. You'll be teleported out of the barrier again and again, and you won't even realize it," Han Li explained.

"Hehe, as expected of someone who cultivates the law of time, Friend Han. You're very perceptive. You're able to see through the effect of this barrier in such a short time. However, this kind of repetition won't last forever. After a certain number of times, the intruder's body will be disintegrated by the law of time, and their Celestial Spiritual Energy will flow into the barrier," Ghost Shaman said.

Both Weeping Soul and Jin Tong were shocked when they heard this, but Han Li didn't seem surprised. His eyes kept wandering around the surface of the barrier as if he was thinking about something.

"Old thing, why didn't you say so earlier? Are you trying to get me killed?!" Jin Tong shouted.

"You've only tried seven or eight times. It won't matter.

It'll take at least ten thousand times to reach the level I'm talking about. The only problem is that the intruder won't be able to feel it unless someone else interferes. In other words, the intruder's fate is sealed the moment he makes his move, "Ghost Shaman said.

"Fellow Daoist Ghost Shaman, do you know how to break this restriction?" Han Li asked.

"Hehe, Fellow Daoist, are you joking again?

If I knew this, wouldn't the Residence of Yama already be in my pocket? "Ghost Shaman laughed dryly and said.

Han Li knew that he was telling the truth when he heard this.

"But the one who started the trouble has to solve it. Since this barrier is cast by the Law of Time, we have to start with the Law of Time if we want to break it," Ghost Shaman reminded.

Han Li seemed to understand something after hearing this. He immediately made a gesture with his hands and chanted softly.

A wave of the Law of Time rippled from his body. Behind him, there was a burst of golden light. Five objects of the Law of Time appeared at the same time and surrounded him.

Han Li silently operated the Great Five Elements Fantasy World Technique. With a wave of his hand, the five objects of the Law of Time suddenly shone with golden light and flew out one by one. They occupied the positions of the five elements and landed on the light curtain of the barrier.

On the light curtain of the barrier, five ripples of the Law of Time rippled from the front, back, left, and top respectively. Wherever they passed, the surface of the barrier was covered with subtle ripples. It looked like the surface of a lake or sea.

Han Li raised a finger and gently poked the barrier, and a soft "pop" sound was heard.

Then, like a bubble, the light screen shattered on its own.

In a split second, the impure Spiritual Qi and poisonous mist in the world surged from all directions and rushed toward the lone island.

It was as if a gust of wind had risen on the island. All the trees, which had been here for an unknown number of years, began to sway once more. The poor birds that were stuck on the trees were drowned by the sudden attack of miasma and fell down in an instant.

"So fast …" Ghost Shaman said in disbelief.

Han Li didn't explain. He just said "Let's go" and flew to the island first. Jintong and Weeping Soul followed closely behind.

On the island, it was very desolate. There were dense ancient trees as far as the eye could see. Even the exposed mountain rocks were rare. There were no pavilions or other Immortal mansions.

However, after landing on the island, Han Li vaguely sensed something. He felt that there was a faint fluctuation of the Law of Time in the middle of the island, attracting him to go there.

The island was densely forested and overgrown with weeds and shrubs. There was not even a mountain trail in the middle. Han Li and the other two could only make a path through the grass and keep moving forward.

As they went up, the terrain of the island became higher and higher. The trees were not as dense as at the beginning. When they came to the top of the mountain, there were only some low bushes and thatch around.

With a glance, Han Li saw that there was a broken stone tablet in the middle of a clump of weeds.
